Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 416

Kenneth stared at Benjamin for the longest time as he contemplated a suitable reply. They were in public, after all.

Eventually, he asked, “Are you hurt?”

Benjamin shook his head and answered, “No. I'm okay.”

Just then, Thalia stepped forward and asked accusatorily, “What are you playing at, Kenneth? How could you whisk him away at a whim? You could've frightened the poor kid to death!”

Thalia's accusation prompted Kenneth to explain, “I've been kind enough not to accuse you of abducting my son to this place. Why are you turning the blame on me now?”

“I...”

“Daddy, I wanted Thalia to accompany me!” Anthony piped up.

“No, it was me!” Benjamin argued, fighting with his brother to shoulder the blame.

Thalia subconsciously smiled at the young boys' antics. She was delighted to see how they were protecting her.

Looks like I didn't adore them for nothing.

Then, she arched her brow smugly and shot Kenneth a challenging look. “See that? I didn't kidnap them. In fact, they kidnapped me. I suppose you should pay me some protection fees instead, Mr. Hamilton.”

“You call that protection?” Kenneth fired back.

Thalia argued, “They're safe and healthy!”

Scoffing, Kenneth replied flatly, “Okay. I'll settle the score with you soon.”

“Fine! I'll be waiting!”

Please! I'm not scared of Kenneth at all!

Meanwhile, Kenneth refrained from commenting on Thalia's behavior after realizing how protective his sons were of her. Doing so would only backfire and hurt his relationship with them instead.

Dave, on the other hand, was still overwhelmed with shock.

“J, this is your son too?” Dave croaked, utterly incredulous.

Calmly, Kenneth nodded and said, “Yes.”

“Your biological child?”

That earned Dave a disdainful look from Kenneth, who questioned, “What's with your question? Do you have a child who's not your biological offspring?”

Dave sputtered in reply, “I don't have a kid!”

As an afterthought, Kenneth added, “I have twins.” He realized his mistake and corrected himself. “To be accurate, I have triplets.”

“Triplets?” Bewildered, Dave stammered, “T-There's another one?”

He spun around and surveyed his surroundings as though worried a third child would materialize out of thin air.

Anthony declared, “You can stop looking, Mr. Handsome. My younger sister isn't here.”

Dave turned to look at Kenneth's eldest son and asked, “So the two of you have a younger sister?”

Nodding, Anthony added, “Yes! She's really pretty and adorable!”

Dave had no words to express his astonishment.

What on earth happened to Kenneth these past few years? How did he suddenly end up with three kids? Two sons and a daughter! What kind of luck is this?

Before he could ask further questions, Kenneth said, “I know you're bursting with questions, and I promise to answer them on the way back.”

He firmly put a stop to Dave's otherwise-imminent onslaught of queries.

“Let's go!”

Anthony stared at them and asked, “Where are we going, Daddy?”

“Well, for starters, we're going somewhere safer than this place!” replied Kenneth.

“Our luggage is still in the hotel.”

“I'll get someone to retrieve it for you.”

Eventually, Anthony nodded and went along with his father's wishes.

Suddenly, Thalia declared, “You all go ahead. I won't be joining.”
